"But" Wang Han couldn't help complaining: "But to be honest, isn't the risk of doing this too great? A smart person like Regnar would not dare to act rashly. If the coup fails, we will not even be able to complete the main mission."
Kirk nodded: "What I said is just a possibility, it does not mean that the count must be killed. We will see the situation. By the way, why hasn't Sheva come back?"
At this time, the door was opened.
The wind and snow outside poured in.
Sheva appeared at the door with a grim look on his face.
"You" Wang Han stood up, his beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
Because Sheva has lost a leg!
He leaned precariously against the door, almost fainting.
The broken leg was filled with ice stubble, and the bloody wound turned black and purple.
"How did you get it?" Xiaopang and Kirk hurriedly helped Sheva to the bed, while Wang Han began to treat the wound and asked anxiously.
"It was bitten by an arctic magic bear," Sheva said weakly, a smile appearing on his pale face: "But in the end, I broke the thing with one shot. It was too difficult to fight."
Everyone was silent. It seemed that this Arctic Demonic Bear was the target of the reincarnation promotion mission that Sheva was going to challenge.
Sheva took out a bloody rare gem and gave it to Wang Han: "Not to mention, the probability of rare gems appearing in this Arctic Demon Bear is quite high. I found another one and gave it to you."
Kirk shook his head: "This belongs to you alone. Recuperate in peace. Your leg injury is very serious. It will be a long time before we return to space. We must take care of it, otherwise it may even be life-threatening."
Wang Han dealt with Sheva's wounds decisively: "You have the [disguise of the King of Snow Monsters], why are you stupid enough to fight with it hand-to-hand when you can't hit and bite?"
Sheva grinned: "What the space promotion reincarnation requires is that you cannot leave the polar bear within 100 meters of a straight line, otherwise it will be considered a failure."
Although Sheva did not describe the specific circumstances of the battle, judging from the wounds on the broken leg bones, it was a severe test for a sniper to engage in close combat with an Arctic devil bear.
Maybe only in this way can a shooter's psychological quality be tested to the greatest extent?
Kirk doesn't know, but the most important thing is that Sheva has also become a reincarnation!
At this point, the six official members of the team have all been promoted to become reincarnators!
The [Dragon King] team officially became the Samsara team!
I heard that Ava is also a reincarnator. She will be resurrected in just two more worlds, and then there will be 7 reincarnators.
The team is getting stronger day by day.
Wang Han was nervously dealing with Sheva's injury. Regnar came to the door: "We are in trouble."
Kirk walked out with him: "What's the matter?"
Regnar said distressedly: "I wonder what kind of poison that bastard Haraldson gave to Rollo, so that he actually wanted to break up with me! Moreover, Earl Haraldson also ordered that Rollo should be the leader in the next operation.
Team, all Viking warriors obey him?"
Kirk said decisively: "Reject this order! After these activities, you now have the ability to lead the tribe alone. What is the attitude of the Viking King?"
Regnar shook his head and said: "Earl Haraldson is very persuasive. He has successfully convinced the Viking King. He said that I am a dangerous person with the ambition to become a new generation of Viking King! Now that I have been found
In England, the Viking warriors are overwhelmingly numerous, why not send some reliable soldiers to plunder? The Viking king really believed their lies. Recently he ordered the formation of a fearless combined fleet to bypass us and send tribes
Elite warriors go! I and other Viking warriors are prohibited from participating in this plunder!"
Kirk smiled: "It looks like it's time to kill the donkey."
Regner looked frustrated: "If I had known, I would have listened to you and not told them the specific situation in England."
Kirk laughed loudly: "Want to pick up fallen peaches? It's not that easy! These fools with muscles in their brains can just stop the disaster for us! Will Rollo go to England next time?"
Regnar nodded: "Not only is he going, he also wants to be the leader. This time the combined fleet is led by Earl Haraldson, and Rollo becomes the leader of the first ship. This kid has been dissatisfied with me since he was a child, and he wants to prove it this time
Let everyone see that he is better than me."
Kirk smiled coldly: "Then let them go. I hope God Odin will protect them from returning to the Hall of Valor! We just need to watch with cold eyes."
Regnar was still worried: "What if they succeed in plundering the treasure? There will be nothing wrong with us after that?"
Kirk smiled slightly: "Then we can't let them succeed!"
"How to do it specifically?" Regnar asked.
"Do you have spies in England?" Kirk said casually.
"Yes," Regner said, "after several plunders, in order to learn more about England, we have bribed some fishermen."
"That news can flow both ways," Kirk sneered.
"Betray your companions?" Regnar shook his head: "Such a serious violation of doctrine, God Odin will not agree."
Kirk could already see cunning in his eyes.
"For friends," Kirk said with a smile: "We Easterners can take advantage of both sides. God Odin will not blame us. Please tell me your contact information."
Regnar "reluctantly" placed a carrier pigeon in Kirk's hands.
"They won't die, right?" Regnar asked.
"It depends on God Odin's arrangement," Kirk smiled.
"Then what should we do?" Regnar asked.
"Let's go hunting," Kirk said confidently, "Specializing in hunting Arctic magic bears, you must have a lot of manpower."
Regnar scratched his head: "Many warriors have defected to me recently. Okay."
As a result, Kirk's team quickly took the Viking warriors to hunt the Arctic Demon Bear to find the precious and priceless rare soul crystal.
Ten days later, news came from England.
The Viking fearless combined fleet, under the personal command of Earl Haraldson, with Rollo as the leader, was ambushed by the King of England, Edward the Elder, as soon as they set foot on the soil of England!
Edward was already irritated by the Viking raids from the north!
First, the Scottish monasteries were plundered and burned, and dozens of monks were robbed. According to a monk who was later sold to Spain by the Vikings, they were all taken to the bitter cold places in the far north to work as slaves and fishermen. But Scotland
It's not his business, he just wants to laugh and laugh.
The second time was great. He spared Scotland in one go and attacked England!
And this time he went even harder, killing 500 church soldiers in one go, and also killed the Archbishop of Canterbury! He took away the holy relic, the True Cross!
This time, the Holy See was completely angered!
In the tenth century AD, the power of the Holy See had reached a certain height. Although it was not as powerful as it would be a few centuries later, it would mobilize dozens of countries, send hundreds of thousands of crusaders, and conduct expeditions thousands of kilometers. But in the tenth century AD, the Holy See's power had reached a certain height.
Quan has launched a strong challenge to the secular kingship!
Even the king of England, who was in a corner of peace, had to consider the power of the Holy See.
Therefore, after receiving news from an unknown source, King Edward felt as if he had found a treasure and immediately communicated with the Holy See.
So, when more than twenty combined fleets of Viking tribes arrived at the coast of England, they jumped into the water excitedly and rushed to the coast. What awaited them was not an unprepared, weak monastery and boxes of gold, but
They are 2,000 heavily armored knights, 7,000 heavy infantry, 4,000 longbowmen from the King of England, and 2,000 church knights sent by the Holy See from Italy and France!
The Viking warriors, who numbered less than 3,000, were brutally massacred.
No matter how brave they were, no matter how fearless they were, the first salvo of longbowmen from England's famous town nailed more than 200 Viking warriors to death on the beach!
Then came the joint charge of the church knights and the king's knights!
On the unobstructed beach, facing the charge of 4,000 heavily armored knights, the Viking warriors could only tragically raise their Viking shields.
After the charge that shattered landslides and ground, and trampled by horse hooves, the aggrieved Viking warriors finally ushered in a fair battle. 7,000 brightly armored infantrymen rumbled over!
massacre, one-sided massacre
The whole beach was stained red with blood
There are dead bodies of Viking warriors everywhere.
The outcome of a war is not determined by individual bravery.
The reason why Regnar succeeded repeatedly was not only his personal force, but also the silent and precise sneak attacks of the dreadnoughts.
Many corpses were floating all over the sea. As the tide surged, the corpses were floating up and down, and Rollo was also among the corpses.
Earl Haraldson shamefully chose to retreat without a fight.
The moment he saw the army of England and the Church appearing on the coastline, he knew that the outcome of this disastrous defeat was doomed.
Fortunately, the earl is not a stubborn warrior who values honor more than his life. He is already old. Many people become more afraid of death as they get older, and the earl is no exception.
He escaped.
After more than ten days of wandering, he finally escaped back to the tribe with the remaining Viking warriors.
The Viking King waited for him with a stern expression.
In this expedition, the Viking king called on dozens of tribes to participate in his own name. As a result, all these tribes suffered heavy losses.
In the severe cold winter, these tribes who are eager to go out to plunder are the poorest and most difficult tribes.
